BACKGROUND: The etiological connection between intraocular pressure (IOP) and the risk of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) remains elusive, particularly regarding whether this risk emanates from the direct influence of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), irrespective of the presence of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), or if it arises as a consequence of the sequelae of POAG. Therefore, we conducted a Mendelian...
